Yurii Belousov: At this picture we see the very first model of a pea traction engine (the Russian scripture on the ship means “The pea”). It is akin to jet engine – being a result of complicated chemical processes under very high pressure gas throws itself away into the atmosphere and makes the ship to swim. Unfortunately, such blow-outs are very harmful for environment – we see that the ship leaves bad yellow turbid air. That is the reason why the whole team abandoned the ship.

And Capitan’s parrot is ready to commit a suicide – he has already tied his wings, slouched his hat and came closer to the springboard.

Obviously, his next step is to jump into the water with a few somersaults, and to sink like a stone. There are only ship rats that refused to leave the ship, they don’t hurry to run, because the cisterns are full of delicious pea. This ship just like the Flying Dutchman cruises across neutral waters, scaring away random comers.
